Moodshine
A Caregiver's Journey
Caregiving for someone in the grip of mental illness can feel like “showing up to a brawl with a butter knife.” In Moodshine: A Caregiver’s Journey, Liz Colvin tells the raw, hopeful story of what happens when a mother refuses to stop fighting for her daughter.
From ADHD and trauma through bipolar disorder, addiction, psychosis, and repeated hospitalizations, Liz walks readers through the real work of caregiving: battling stigma, navigating a broken system, setting boundaries, and starting over after each relapse. Along the way she offers practical tools, spiritual insight, and a rare kind of honesty that makes you feel seen instead of judged.
